AROWANA TORMENTS THE RAT
Prince Ghas would be a tyrant. This was plain to see. He was spoilt and a scold; he enjoyed beating Lasha the chambermaid's daughter just to see what shapes her bruises would make.

Another linocut plate. I was fairly negative all the time I worked on this: the lino material was kind of powdery; I'd made mistakes in the sketching; the fish looks derpy; the composition is too empty at the bottom; there's not enough detail in the rat; my cuts aren't even or precise enough.
Our fifteen-year-old neighbour Lisa had come over to make linocuts, too. She made a rabbit and a Welsh dragon. She was very tolerant of my constant bellyaching.
"You got to be positive," she said. "It looks good, and you'll be happy when it's done."
And while I'm still not one-hundred-percent happy with it---yeah, I'm happy with my derpy fish.
Linocut 8 of 12.
